Yahweh said to Moses/me,
2 Command [the] people of Israel and you will say to them if you [are] about to go into the land Canaan this [is] the land which it will fall to you an inheritance [the] land of Canaan to borders its.
“Tell this to the Israeli people: You will soon enter Canaan land, and it will become yours. These will be the borders of the land:
3 And it will be of you [the] side of [the] south from [the] wilderness of Zin on [the] hands of Edom and it will be of you border of [the] southward from [the] end of [the] Sea of Salt east-ward.
On the south you will receive part of the Zin Desert, near the border of the Edom [region]. On the east side, the border will start at the south end of the Dead Sea.
4 And it will turn of you the border from [the] south to [the] ascent of scorpions and it will pass on Zin towards (and they will be *Q(K)*) extremities its from [the] south of Kadesh Barnea and it will go out Hazar Addar and it will pass on Azmon towards.
It will extend to a little south of the Scorpion Pass, and extend [west] through [the] Zin [Desert] and south of Kadesh-Barnea. From there it will extend to Hazar Addar and from there to Azmon.
5 And it will turn the border from Azmon [the] wadi of towards Egypt and they will be extremities its the sea towards.

6 And [the] border of [the] west and it will be for you the sea great and a border this it will be of you border of [the] west.
The border on the west will be the Mediterranean Sea.

The border on the north will start from the Mediterranean Sea and extend [east] to Hor Mountain.

From there it will extend to Lebo-Hamath and then to Zedad.

The border on the east will start at Hazar-Enan and extend [south] to Shepham.
11 And it will go down the border from Shepham Riblah from [the] east of Ain and it will go down the border and it will reach to [the] shoulder of [the] sea of Kinnereth east-ward.

Then the border will extend south along the Jordan [River] and end at the Dead Sea. Those will be the borders around your country.”
13 And he commanded Moses [the] people of Israel saying this [is] the land which you will inherit it by lot which he has commanded Yahweh to give to [the] nine the tribes and [the] half of the tribe.
So Moses/I [told all that] to the Israeli people. Then he/I said to them, “That is the land that you will receive. You must throw (lots/stones that have been marked) to decide which area will go to each of the nine and a half tribes, because Yahweh has commanded that it should be divided among them.
14 For they have taken [the] tribe of [the] descendants of the Reubenite[s] to [the] house of ancestors their and [the] tribe of [the] descendants of the Gadite[s] to [the] house of ancestors their and [the] half of [the] tribe of Manasseh they have taken inheritance their.
The tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half of the tribe of Manasseh have already received the land in which they will live.
15 [the] two The tribes and [the] half of the tribe they have taken inheritance their from [the] other side of [the] Jordan of Jericho east-ward east-ward.
They have received land on the east side of the Jordan [River], across from Jericho.”
16 And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.
Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
17 These [are] [the] names of the men who they will give as inheritance to you the land Eleazar the priest and Joshua [the] son of Nun.
“These are the men who will divide the land: First, Eleazar and Joshua.
18 And a leader one a leader one from a tribe you will take to give as inheritance the land.
But one leader [from each of the twelve tribes will help them divide the land].
19 And these [are] [the] names of the men of [the] tribe of Judah Caleb [the] son of Jephunneh.
“From the tribe of Judah, appoint Jephunneh’s son Caleb. From the tribe of Simeon appoint Ammihud’s son Shemuel. From the tribe of Benjamin appoint Kislon’s son Elidad.

20 And of [the] tribe of [the] descendants of Simeon Shemuel [the] son of Ammihud.
21 Of [the] tribe of Benjamin Elidad [the] son of Chislon.
22 And of [the] tribe of [the] descendants of Dan a leader Bukki [the] son of Jogli.

Yahweh commanded that all those were the men who should divide the Canaan region among the Israeli people.
